Delhi Protests Over Electoral Rolls Spark Regime Change Allegations and Political Dispute
Protests in Delhi demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation have sparked a political dispute. Opposition parties, including Congress, Left, and CJP, claim voter roll removals during the Special Intensive Revision are unjust and call for electoral accountability. BJP leaders, notably Rajeev Chandrasekhar, allege these protests aim for a 'Bangladesh-style' regime change motivated by opposition's opposition to Prime Minister Modi. The opposition rejects these claims, emphasizing democratic processes and public mobilisation as legitimate means to challenge the government.
